What do you think of the system of my school? (Multimedia Design)

So, last year when I joined this school, the new system came.

We don't get regular lessons. We do project 90% of the time (10% theory), and the process of the project is getting repeated every project, going a little deeper each time. They mostly let us swim in the deep, we don't really get obvious assignments, you have to teach yourself. Because when you get to work in the field, nobody is going to tell you what to do, you must do that yourself.

The upside of this is that we get a very strong idea of the process. Why the process is important, and exactly which steps are required. And of course, team work is a big part.

The downside is that we have less theory knowledge. Some might not even control the design tools very well (Sketch, Creative suite, etc). They don't go in depth about that, since they say it's something you can learn in a week if you work at a company. The process you can't learn easily.

What do you think of this?
